The Spider King's Little princess is a modern-day Romeo and Juliet placed against the backdrop of an changing Lagos, a city torn between traditions and modernity, problem and real truth, love and family loyalty. Seventeen-year-old Abike Johnson is the most liked child of her rich father. She lives in a sprawling mansion in Lagos, shielded by armed guards and ferried all over the place in an enormous dark jeep. But being her father's favorite comes with uneasy duties, and she is often depressed behind the high wall space of her house. A world away from Abike's mansion, in the city's slums, lives a 17-year-old hawker struggling to make sense of the world. His family lost everything after his father's fatality, and now he works after cars on the roadside offering ice cream to aid his mother and sister. When Abike purchases ice cream from the hawker 1 day, they hit up an improbable and tentative romance, defying the prejudices of Nigerian culture. But as they expand closer, revelations from days gone by threaten their marriage, and both Abike and the hawker must make a decision where their loyalties lie.
